Abstract Chiral cyclopentadienyl rhodium (CpRh) complex‐catalyzed asymmetric C−H functionalization reactions have witnessed a significant progress in organic synthesis. In sharp contrast, the reported chiral Cp ligands are limited to C‐linked and often synthetically challenging. To address these issues, we developed novel class of tunable bearing oxygen linkers, which were efficient catalysts for arylation benzo[ h ]quinolines with 1‐diazonaphthoquinones, affording axially heterobiaryls excellent yields enantioselectivity (up 99 % yield, 98.5:1.5 er). Mechanistic studies suggest that reaction is likely proceed by electrophilic activation, followed coupling cyclometalated rhodium(III) complex 1‐diazonaphthoquinones.
